Cream Stem Fez Hat - Traclet

The history of the Fez is long and often associated with the Middle East and North Africa. However, contrary to popular belief, the fez (in Arabic: فأس / fās) or tarboosh (in Arabic: طربوش / ṭarbūš) actually comes to us from Greece. It is a small felt headpiece for men, often red in color.

This headpiece has a truncated cone shape, adorned with a black tassel fixed on top. The fez is originally from Greece, and was later adopted by many ethnic and religious groups in the 19th century Ottoman Empire. The name Fez comes from the eponymous Moroccan city of Fez. In Morocco, however, the Fez is a symbol of nationalism and is historically known to have been worn as a symbol of protest during the French occupation. It is now associated with the Moroccan Royal Court. The King of Morocco, the royal guard, ministers, and palace employees all wear Fezzes and are the only ones to do so. Moroccans produced the dye for these hats, which comes from red berries.

It is available here in cream color and in one size.
